Here's a quick and dirty that will get you in the ballpark: Rotate the entire body 90 degrees. (Y rotate -90.) Select the hip and Y rotate that about 45 degrees. Select the right foot and ZTrans it back. Select the left foot and ZTrans it forward. The right foot may end up on tip-toes. If you don't want that, use the YTrans and ZTrans to shift the hip so it is more centered over both feet. (If you're trying to duplicate the shot above, the feet can't be seen anyway. No need to work on something that can't be seen and won't affect what can be seen.) Select the chest and twist it away from the camera and use Bend to arch the back slightly. The shoulders need to be bent and twisted to meet in the middle of the chest. You may need to adjust the Front-Back setting as well. The forearms need to be bent, with a touch of twist and perhaps a bit of Side-Side as well. The lower neck and neck need to be twisted with a slight bend. The head is also twisted and bent. You'll need to tweak and adjust accordingly, but this should get you most of the way there.
