Varying revs as a break-in approach

I'm still under 200 miles and understand that a popular approach to breaking-in an engine is to vary the revs for the first 1000 miles.

How exactly is this done?

I ride around the hood for a few miles and jump on the highway for 30-40. While on the highway I vary my speed from 60 - 80, jumping from 60 to 80 quickly a number of times, which jumps the revs from about 1100 to 2900 or so. Then I got off the highway and ride side roads and lights for another 5 miles.

That's good?
