With arthritis its typically advisable to continue normal activities, including light exercise. Good options are swimming, elliptical, biking, walking. Depending upon level of symptoms, potentially jogging/running, if they exacerbate pain and symptoms, might not be advisable. In general restrictions are only limited to pain tolerance.
Avoid high impact exercises
