    maybe switch your routine. i did supersets on my bi and tri to shock them into growth when they were stuck.

    I did skull crusher 1 set, then alternating inclince db curls one set. back and forth til 3 sets complete.

    Dumbell lying french press 1 set then straight bar preacher curls.back and forth til 3 sets complete.

    dips between benches and then db preacher curls.back and forth til 3 sets complete.

    then v bar pressdowns and then high cable curls both arms same time.back and forth til 3 sets complete.

    then reverse curls and wrist curls back and forth for 5 sets total.

    it made my arms feel like they were going to explode yet when you go back and forth you still maintain strength from using opposing muscles going back and forth. I did it for about 6 weeks and them switched routines but it gave them a nice kickstart.

    Superset is the best thing I can thank of. Mabe try increasing your reps, for me I train arms at a high intensity. I start with my heaviest weight first and keep decreasing the weight through the sets, but I keep increasing my reps. Don't know if this will work but it has done wonders for me.

    Vary your exercises. I prefer: Seated D-Bell Curls, Standing Close-grip Barbell and finish with preacher curls.
    Tricep Pressdown: Warms my elbows up, Skullcrushers, Dips.
    As far as reps, I would just change it up. If you are doing sets of 10-12, try sets of 6-8, something like that. Your current routine would be a tremendous help!

    Do you train em on the same day as other body parts or do you train arms on a day by themselves?

    Switch up the order in which you do your exercises so certain parts of that muscle end up working harder in different workouts...Look at the muscle in all of its parts, make sure you are hitting each part...

    Pick 2-3 movement apiece each for tris and bis.

    Stick to them for 6 weeks. Variety's nice and all but growth and growing is about being consistent
