Can't talk. : In general, if you don't have enough breath to talk during the activity...Then it's vigorous. But sports docs and cardiologists have more specific parameters depending on your goals.

Easy: Moderate means it is difficult to sing and vigorous means it is difficult to carry on a conversation.
