It blurs into gear shifting because what you are doing is effectively half of a gear shift. The same techniques apply.

Based on the comments and videos, I need to press & release (blip) the gas, then clutch, then gas. In other words the gas is pressed down, then quickly released as the clutch is pressed, which is then quickly released as the gas is pressed back to 5th gear position.
Don't lose sight of the end which is to match the engine, gear and shaft speeds.
