Exercise is a great way to keep the blood moving. This helps battle additional factors that increase clotting.

Exercise is great. It helps keep our hearts healthy and keeps our blood moving. Unless your doctor specifically tells you to avoid certain kinds of exercises, get moving. Swimming is a great way to get cardio while being low impact on your legs.
Also standing up periodically and walking around for a few minutes if you sit for long periods of time is very good to prevent clot formations. Sitting with your legs propped up is a great way as well to reduce any swelling and help move blood from your legs.

I think exercise with factor v is a must! Keeping yourself active is always healthier.
However any sports / activities that could potentially involve hard blows to the body (cricket, dodgeball) should be avoided or played with caution.

Be active in ways you enjoy. Exercise regularly, such as walking, swimming or riding a bike 3 times a week.
If you have an inactive (sedentary) lifestyle, consider how you could gradually increase your physical activity at home, school, work or play. Talk with your health care provider about how to do this safely.
