You need to ask yourself what your goals are and match the style to those goals. There are competition-based Martial Arts and others that are geared to street-based, reality self-defense. In all styles I would imagine you would get fit, but there are some more than others that do this. Also it is not only the style, but the school and the instructors. Capabilities vary widely depending on individual instructors. By way of disclaimer, I do Krav Maga and am over 60 and get in better shape every day. I train in Krav Maga at least 4 hours per week.

What is the Japanese martial art similar to judo?
Judo is the Japanese martial art that was derived from JuJitsu by Kano Sensei.
Which of these martial arts was created from the principles of juijitsu?
"Jujitsu" is one of the many varied spellings of Japanese Jujutsu, which is derived from Aiki-jujutsu. One of the later martial art systems created from jujutsu is Judo. It was developed by Kano Sensei (Jigoro Kano) as a less lethal martial art. He was an advocate of the art and worked hard to get it into the Olympics. Also a descendant of Aiki-jujutsu, and Jujutsu is Aikido, created by Morihei Ueshiba.
Is jujitsu a good martial art?
In my opinion, yes, jujitsu is very helpful when it comes to grapples, wrist locks and what not. It hardly requires any strength whatsoever because most of the attacks involve using the opponent's strength against themselves. Another good thing about jujitsu is the wrist locks, even the biggest of people have pressure points, apply these correctly and you have control of the fight. In jujitsu they not only teach you how to master pressure points but how to get out of them.
