yadi iva itarathā brahmacaryād eva pravrajed gṛhādvā vanādvā. 

   atha punara vratī vā vrat vā snātako vā snātakovā utsannāgnir anagnikovā 

   yad ahar eva virajet tad ahar eva pravrajet


The word Anagnika I would not interpret as one who 'lacks the energy' to do agnikaryam. It means, one who (though having the adhikara and ability) has given up Agnikaryam.


So it states (in my view)

pravrajed brahmacaryād gṛhād vanād ... yad ahar eva virajet tad ahar eva pravrajet


ie, one who has developed vairagyam, can take up pArivrAjyam from any ashrama, be it Brahmacharyam, Garhasthyam etc.
