I really wanna do some Jui Jujitsu or a similar martial arts. Stuff that revolves around countering attacks and stuff.
Anyone doing anything? Is it fun?

Don't know what you mean by "countering attacks"; all martial arts have focuses on counters. But if you're looking into grappling since you mentioned jiujitsu, I'd say wrestling and/or judo. Much more dynamic and it's all about controlling and dominating a mother****er. Definitely try out wrestling though. You only got high school and maybe college.

Hey, I have been doing Muay Thai for almost a year now. Trainers want to put me to the highest rank (Elite training) and we have all the best competitors in Sweden here. Also some girls won the World Cup @ Muay Thai that came from here.. pretty awesome. I really dont have the time since I hit the gym so much and its a pain in the ass to take the train into where it is (takes about 1 hour) but yeah... maybe I should get serious about it.
Muay thai is all about clinching, kicking, fore-arming(?) kneeing punching and blocking :-)

Jiu jitsu is good but a lot more focused on ground work.
I'd say get into some form of combined martial art. Or muay thai for the violence.
Or if you want to be awesome at kicking do karate.
MMA is fun, although once you start sparring you'll get raped with no ground work experience.
Try a few and then see which you like best.Sponsored by SpartanSupps

Trained in muay thai for abou 2 years, just stopped recently.
Used to train in bjj, judo and wrestling, never really was that good.. my ground game sucks. Judo and BJJ was fun, judo was better though, I hated wrestling.
If you want a martial art specifially for countering, look into aikido or krav maga. Those are so sick, but aikido takes a lot longer to get good at it so you need patience for that."God will not have his work made manifest through cowards"

Well I signed up for Karatedo (wtf is that) and Jui Jujitsu, the Jujitsu people were a lot nicer and I'm having a lesson tonight.
Could not find a Muay Thai tutor in my state yet will continue looking and see what I enjoy.
BUT GUYS
How do you deal with DOMS and Martial Arts? I have super bad triceps/shoulder/chest DOMS from yesterday even my abs hurt from pull ups.
How do you balance the two? I can't be 100% at both because I need to not get DOMS to be good at Jui Jujitsu and need BB to get big.I want bodybuilding to be part of my lifestyle.
