Default timing problems and locked crank shaft

so i installed my compcam cam gear, compcam valve springs, and aem cam gear this week. went to crank it up and it wont start with bad timing obviously the issue. so me and my dad play with it for about 3 hours and get the car to idle, even if it is rough. so after retarding the timing 1 degree and starting the car, we realize we should have advanced it 1 degree. still turning the ratchet counterclockwise to make a complete 360degree turn around the cam gear, the ratchet stops. it completely stops and will not budge. we have no idea why it suddenly locked up . we had been messing with it all night with no problems and it just freezes up and will not budge. we got fed up with it so we called it quits for the night. tomorrow the cam is comin out again to make sure its at perfect tdc. help me out! thanks h-t
