looks like I'm going to need a 50 to be able to throw it down.  That aint going to happen unless i replace my calves with rockets.

I don't know why I am giving you adivce but IMO, don't even think about the idea of dunking now. You're so far away you should just keep it from entering your mind to avoid getting discouraged. Just focus on short-term goals like losing some goddamn body fat and having a healthy ankle. Then start on stuff like 2xBW squat, 35'' SVJ, 2.5BW squat, 40'' RVJ, etc.. Might take you years but look at what Kingfish has done by training smart and being dedicated. At least point yourself in the right direction.

losing body fat when all you get is food stuffed down your face is tough.... in america, no one looks down upon gluttony.

Complete bullshit. No one MAKES you eat. You may not have access to a great diet but portions and the ability to say no is paramount. I'm sorry but unless you have a medical reason for being overweight the only person at fault is you.

And yes this is a pet peeve of mine lol

Bro I live in the south. Unhealthy food and tons of it is a tradition. Eat one plate and kindly say your full. Being polite goes miles.

welcome back.

lol 

250lbs!!   

front squat to back squat ratio is a matter of leverages, you're pretty much always going to be able to BS more than you FS and that's fine. nothing against focusing on FS, do what makes you happy.

if your goal is to get below 15%, what are you waiting for re: dieting? what's your diet plan?

It's so time consuming and expensive to diet and get enough nutrition/protein tbh..... you have to make everything yourself: salads, oatmeal, chicken breast, and all that whole foods store stuff..... but i'm about to start

it helps to prepare stuff yourself, yeah, but you don't have to spend lots of money. if you're getting enough protein and veggies and few enough calories you're fine. making food in bulk helps: like make 5 pounds of pulled chicken and a ton of non-lettuce salad at the beginning of the week (bean salad, caroline-style cole slaw i.e. no mayo, red cabbage and orange salad) and just eat it until it's gone. there's a recipe thread on here with some good ideas.

or you can just eat out, but it's harder to do portion control and it's more expensive.

Any reason why you don't deadlift? Imo you could benefit from additional P-chain work, esp a big compound movement.

Squatting heavy is good but I believe from your video of 315 (the amount your knees go over your toes) and your front squat:back squat ratio you are quad dominant, maybe even very quad dominant. This sets you up for injury if you play sports and I don't believe you can get to a 40" SVJ without a good quad:p-chain balance.
