I have the same problem of next to no ankle dorsiflexion due to an old injury. Mine was pretty bad, though, so I’ve been tapping away at this over a while. I posted how I warm up my ankles over here, and got some helpful feedback on how I can do a bit more as well:
It can help a lot to get Olympic Lifting shoes (if you don’t have them already). The slight heel raise helps a lot of people - even ones who don’t normally have difficulty with ankle dorsiflexion. I got my shoes altered to 2x standard height. Which isn’t a fix… But it does prevent me falling on my butt when Oly Lifting / Squatting. Wide stance hurts the anterior part of my femur so that wasn’t really an option for me.
