Yeah but Iโ€™m probably listening to a book

You can't possibly listen to a book while doing a heavy barbell squat

I mean you could hear the words or whatever audio is coming out - but in the moment of lifting you'll be focused on not allowing the weight to crush your body and instead to lift it and control it because you're such a animal beast like creature who's sole focus is to engorge your muscles with blood and lift heavy objects.
