      It’s worth mentioning there’s different kinds of full plate armour, too. It’s going to be harder to move around in something designed for mounted jousting, with hard impacts and strict rules, than something made for actual infantry use. That being said, you can obviously jump up on a horse even in jousting armour, and this is an actual knight who we can assume is in excellent physical condition and has a lifetime of practice.
