Whats a good martial art for my height and body type.?
Hi, I’m looking for a martial art (no weapons) that suits me. I’m 6′ tall, and weigh 186 pounds. I am fairly sturdily built (broad shoulders, lots of muscle mass ect). I have great natural strength, and a fair degree of flexibility to offset this, especially considering I’m male. My legs are average length for my height. I’d prefer something that has real self-defense application.
You are average (like me). You could go with almost anything.
Find something you like, get good at it, and learn how to adapt it for self defense. If you want to go straight to self defense without the adaptation step, go for Krav Maga.
It’s whatever you want. Though if you want something that is mainly self-defence I would go with Krav Maga. If not you would have to tell me if there is anything else you would want to work on. But any thing would suit you.

plz answer

i would do something that focuses on grappling like judo since you have a lot of upperbody strength
From your physical description I would say Muay Thai, Chute Boxing, and/or Traditional Boxing for stand-up and any form of Wrestling(freestyle or Greco-Roman), BJJ, Judo, or Sambo for grappling. How flexible your are is also a factor, but I hope this helps.
hi i think anyone can learn any kind of martial art if they put there mind to it. im no expert and have very little experince but i am working on learning. i dont use a school though i found a great site

i dont have time or money to pay for a school but this site seems to have quite a bit of info and is often updated. good luck with what ever you choose
height and weight has nothing to do with the style you choose, people that claim this know very little about martial arts
what matters is finding a good instructor and the way you train
