Default Stocky tomato plants

What might I do to grow stocky tomato plants? Is there ever a point when you might pinch the top leaves? I read something recently about "fluffing" or gently rubbing your hand over the tops of seedlings. Supposedly, it makes the stem stronger. My tomato plants are about 3 inches tall right now. Is there something I should be doing to make them eventually turn into sturdy tomato plants?
