Lol no, go for it. Either of those 3 is good, I want to try BJJ a little maybe in the future. By the time I'll try I'll be like 2-3 years older than you would have lol

You're gonna get your ass kicked for a pretty long time, and by people younger than you. All those martial arts are very full on and you'll be gettin thrown around for ages no matter what because even once you have experience, the people you were fighting before will have had even MORE experience. E.g. You start training, and fight a guy with 2 years experience - he kicks your ass. 2 years later you have 2 years worth of experience, whereas he as 4 - still kicks your ass. On the other hand it's not about getting beaten up at your club, its about not getting beaten up outside - and those are 3 of the most useful martial arts when it comes to that, so if I were you I'd join 1 of those. However if you're still sensitive about your age, I'd suggest joining something like Karate or Tae Kwon Do where you can easily catch up to other club members abilities within 2-3 years.
Read post back - made 0 sense, doesn't matter read it anyway.
Edit: What I mean is basically the martial arts you suggested are the most useful. I'd say Muay Thai would be the most useful in a fight.
Less useful and more technical ones: Karate, Tae Kwon Do.
Edit Edit: Why are you doing a Martial Art? Would make it alot easier to help advice you as to which one to pick. Fitness, black belt, self defence etc.

Lol i was just thinking this when i read the thread title...
OP, go for it. It's a hard choice for me out of the three you've selected as they're all exceptionally good forms to train in. My recommendation though would be to see if you can get in on some Krav Maga training.
Whatever you choose; train hard and good luck!<<:::>> Founder, CMO, Researcher, & Writer at Spartan Supps. <<:::>>
