If I wanted to fight other people I would take BJJ. If I wanted a good work out and to learn a few things along the way, I wouldn't take BJJ, I would chose from the other 200 better work out forms.
BJJ isn't easy on the body, even more so for people really out of shape. If you have problems with bones, muscles, over weight, etc. BJJ will only cause more problems.
Go with whatever makes you feel good, you don't have to train to kill someone. After all, any fighting style can be beat with the simple pull of a trigger.

Thanks man...you've seen my body and know exactly how out of shape it is...LOL
I am doing this as a way to get back into some sort of physical conditioning as well as learn something interesting.
I can guarantee you if I joined up something like YMCA which is clear across town I would probably talk myself out of going to it at some point..so I figured something like this would keep me interested.
