Now I've been doing weight lifting for about 5 years, and, without being immodest, I can say I've built up some strenght and muscle. Thats the reason I wonder if there is a martial art out there where being strong is a virtue, or at least an advantage.
Furthermore, I'm looking for a martial art to teach some self defense, and to develop myself fysically and mentally (that is, mental and fysical development one doesn't get from lifting weights).
