Rather than suggest a specific art, I want to emphasize what I believe to be the number one variable - the choice of an instructor. In my late 40's I began training under an instructor who was exactly my same age, and although he had been training continuously for 3 decades, he had some understanding of how the body ages, and how to train adults. Too many martial arts instructors are in their early 20's and gear their classes towards children. I would rather have a good instructor teach an obsolete art well than get the false confidence of just being another body in the back row of a class in the ultimate combat art.
Cross training in more than one art is becoming popular, mixing a grappling art with a striking art.
