"rev-up, throttle back" principle,

Hi fellow aviators,

there is a principle about constant speed propeller, "rev-up, throttle back".

I googled all day long and find that besides my book, no one really explained online.

The reason is that you want to avoid over boosting the engine. May I ask if I don't follow this principle, how would I over boost it? And by selecting RPM, when do we mean increase pitch, when do we mean decrease pitch? how would I select the RPM then how would I move the throttle to avoid over boosting it, if I want to increase power or decrease power?

Thanks!

It makes me headache all day long!
