This may be a glitch
I'm sneaking around in a cave plus using hand to hand and neither one are going up in level. I switched to a weapon and that goes up with each hit. The second time i re-loaded to try again, I walked into a wall on purpose, near a rat and kept walking at the wall, but sneak stayed stuck at 15 ..... My heavy armor leveled as i got hit later though. Is there a fix, as the last character i played had no problems at all. I would thank anyone for their help with this.
There is a glitch if you get "free" training, which you get most often as a quest reward (training you pay for and skill increases from books are not affected). Basically it sets your experience points in that skill to a negative number which more or less doubles the amount of experience you need to increase that skill again and makes it look like the skill isn't increasing at all until it gets above zero again. If you watched the people sparring outside the arena and got a hand-to-hand bonus from that, it may take a while before your hand-to-hand skill starts increasing again.
As far as sneak, you don't get experience if anyone knows you are there, so make sure the icon is dim.

Can the answer to this question be "No"?
They've moved on by now.
