pinching and ramification

OK, here's a great question. I've read all this stuff about "pinching new growth" to get great ramification. When you're talking about pinching new growth do they mean new buds, or letting it grow for a few leaves then pinching it off. If you just continue to pinch of new buds then the tree will never have new leaves, right?

Can someone explain this in simplistic terms for a beginner?
