Sounds like a quack to me. If this method worked so well, all the big name mechanics and engine builders would be using it. Just run the engine normally, drive it like you drive it every day. Accelerate, decelerate, just do what you always do. It will be fine.

Yes, pre-oil using the adapter thru the distributor hole. Keep going until you see oil coming out of the tops of the push rods. When you first start the engine is the very worst time for engine wear, and making sure it's pre oiled is important. Also, make sure you have the timing set as close to right as you can, and gas in the bowls of the carb so that it starts right away. Grinding away at the starter is going to wipe the lube off of the cam and lifters. The engine should start right away if at all possible.
