Never more than half your strength.

I am sure that intelligently read, even a single sentence can explain a lot:

prakruti

"Ayurveda's rule is that you should never exert more than half your capacity." Robert Svoboda, Prakruti, pg. 107)

Viniyoga is taught at Chennai at the Krishnamachari Yoga Mandiram by TKV Desikachar, BKS Iyengar's brother and his assistant teachers. The courses are designed with the individual in mind and are very flexible. It is said that after J Krishnamurti harmed his body by too strenuous a Yoga regime (he was originally taught by BKS Iyengar), he had to be re-taught by TKV.
