I've been using that as a "young" rule of thumb. I was told by a world class coach that under workouts under 130 BPM is essentially low intensity junk miles. However, that number should drop a bit with age.

What does moderate intensity workout mean?

It generally means a 140-160 heart rate in cardio

160 is a really good bpm for Cardio. IMO, moderate would be 125-145. But that's just MO.
