Which only adds to the point that the characters and adventurers in question would be able to feasibly be able to jump and maneuver in their combat attire. If we are able to do it, then certainly the general characters and adventurers mentioned would be able to do it as well, with no difficulties.

Combine that with long periods of training (such as pages->squires->knights) it may feel like a natural part of your body.
That is completelly correct. Not to mention the fact that 50-60 lbs is really not that heavy to begin with and, as you pointed out, it would feel even less when distributed through out your body.
