Is it advisable to do exercise when affected by Hashimotos Disease? Which activities would you suggest and how intense should they be?
Exercise with Hashimotos Disease: which activities patients recommend or avoid, and what the evidence says.
You should still exercise normally, you should always ask your doctor's about how hard you should push it.

Yes staying active is best but since many people with Thyroid issues also have issues with their Adrenal glands (think fight or flight response) you don't want to do things that are stessful to the body until you make sure your Adrenals are healthy. Walking, swimming, light weight lifting are advised esp in the beginning. Since severe fatigue is often a common complaint esp when you are first diagnosed any exercise you can do is better than nothing!

This is all relative. Consult your physician. However, I have had no exercise restrictions with this disease, except for the days/weeks where I'm in hypo.
