Weak Wrisit / Stopped Making Progress

Hi guys,

I am currently on my second muscle gain mission in three years. The first time I worked at it for a year,and then gave up for year. This january I have come back with a vengance, joined a gym, bought nutritional suppliments / weight gain/ protein and made a regimen.

The thing is , whilst I look bigger this time (althoguh some of it is fat), I have hit a plateu and it is killing my enthusiasm. For the past three months I have not been able to curl more than 16kg (per arm).

MY wrists really hurt and feel like they cant take any more weight. If I go to 18kg, my arm doesnt even move, it just cant do it. There are no inbetween weighs, so I have tried other exercises to build up my strength in other ways, such as holding heavy weights and raising and lowering my shoulders. I have made progress with other muscles, but curl wont go to #18kgs.

Its really frustrating, I go the gym three times a week and take all my suppliments... why oh why cant my wrists and bicpes get any stronger !?!?!
 
If you are getting stuck at 18, then why not try just dropping down to the next lowest, and increasing your reps? Eventually if you keep upping your reps at that weight, you'll bound to able to able to lift 18k.
