Before I came to Vaishnavism, I studied a bit of the Yogic ways of life, but Who wants to live on this planet full of suffering for all those years, when you can perform service to God and grow in getting closer to God.
Then receive Heaven, and live perfectly. Who knows, maybe in the Heaven we can perform all these things the Yogis aspire for and more. There's still stuff to learn to help your vitality, which helps us spiritually in Yogic practices so I guess one can't renounce it completely.
Even in Marriage, it's recommended not to lose the sexual energy.
Married couples seeking spiritual life should really look into White Tantra, or Doaist Sex Kung Fu, to transform the sexual energy into spiritual love, without spilling energy in orgasm. It's even far more beneficial, if one wishes to practice tantra or any of that, to have a Partner, preferably Married. So being married doesn't have to be less perfect on the road to spiritual life.
@madzane94 Best in marriage is to only have sex for having children. Few can reach that stage though... Practically speaking marriage means there is some small license for self-enjoyment, it is necessary for those who have a hard time with self-control or almost anyone raised in western countries.

" Na tapo tapahah ithyaahu Brahmacharyam tapothamam |
Urdhvareto bhaved yasya, sa devo na tu Maanushaha" ||
Meaning:- "There is no penance which equals Brahmacharya. Brahmacharya is the highest and loftiest of all penances |
The Urdhvareta saint who practices Brahmacharya is not a human being but a living god" ||
