As far as strengthing your lower body, I dont know what kind of exercise you are looking for legs or back, and I am not an expert

Leg streching with no weights
Calf Stretch
One Leg Hamstring Stretch
Toe Reach Stretch
Standing One Leg Thigh Stretch

Leg exercise with a 2-5lb dumbbell
Dumbbell Squats
Dumbbell Straight Leg Deadlift
Dumbbell Lunges
