| I don't think the instructions Baba Ramdev gives on the video for Kapalbhati pranayam are that clear, so here is a link to a short instructional video on it

the benefits of kapalbhati are just as big as Anulom vilom, so i would advise you check it out.
Here is a list of the benefits of these three pranayam:
Bhastrika Benefits
Bhastrika is excellent for physical body as well as spirituality of an individual. It makes the mind peaceful and calm so as to help in Kundalini Awakening.

This is the best breathing exercise for lungs. It makes the lungs healthy and improves strength. It directly affects all respiratory system of body and cures all lungs related problems.

It is very helpful to cure all heart diseases like angina, arteries blockages, etc .

Kapalbhati Benefits
Kapalbhati primarily affects stomach, pancreas, liver, spleen, intestine, prostate and kidney to function more efficientely. These are very significant parts of human body. Any disease of these organs, which can not be controlled by any medicine is surly cured by regular practice of kapalbhati.
All the chakras from ‘Muradhar’ to ‘Shasrar’ are purified and filled with Cosmic Energy.
Kapalbhati benefits
Balances three dosas of the human body. These are vata (wind/spirit/air), pitta (bile) and kapha (phlegm). Disorder of these three is the root cause for unhealthy body.
It is excellent not only for physical body but for sub-conscious mind as well. According to Swami Ramdev ji Maharaj, it is “Sanjeevani” (one that infuses life) on earth.
While doing kapalbhati, if practitioner concentrates at the ‘Mooladhar Chakra’, the ‘Kundalini’ power starts awakening.
Kapalbhati improves concentration power in children and adults simultaneously. It makes the face Lustrous and attractive.

Swami Ramdev ji maharaj claims to control ‘Cancer’ with kapalbhati and anulom-vilom. Even he has proved with some patients in his ashram in India. According to him, any disease can be cured by the combination of Pranayama practice.
Kapalbhati is the best solution for weight loss without any side effects. If it is practiced 15-20 minutes daily, along with yoga diet control chart, the weight can be decreased by 4-8 Kg. per month very easily.

Anulom Vilom Benefits
Most of the chronic diseases can be completely cured by practicing this pranayama regularly.
If practiced regularly for 15 –20 minuts per day, anulom vilom intensifies the inner strength of body and enhances the unknown powers of mind. If Sadhaka (practitioner) performs 250-300 cycles per day, the ‘Kundalini Shakti’ begins awakening which lies in ‘Muladhar Chakra’.
Anuloma Viloma Cures
Regular practice of this Pranayama purifies all innumerable Nadis (channels) of the body, which makes the body healthy, lustrous and strong.
All kinds of diseases occurring due to the disturbance of ‘Vata Dosha’ like rheumatism, gout, diseases pertaining to urinary and reproductive organs are cured. Besides regular practice of this pranayama also cures diseases like cold, cataract, sinus at chronic stage.
The three Doshas of Vata, Pitta, Kapha regularize themselves and assume proper proportions.
Blood Pressure and Diabetes can completely cured with regular practice.
Arteries Blockage of heart are dissolved and the arteries become clean, making blood circulation uninterrupted. If this Pranayama is practiced for three to four months regularly, 30% – 40% of blockages in the arteries are removed preventing the heart attack.
Pathogenic cholesterol, triglycerides, H.D.L. and L.D.L. also cured making the arterial channels clear for effective and uninterrupted flow of blood in the heart.
Anuloma viloma pranayama is highly recommended for angina. With regular and daily practice, angina is completely cured without any medicine or extra exercise. It has been proved on various heart patients in India by Swami Ramdev.
I
nnumerous unbelievable results on patients are proved in India by Swami Ramdev. He completely removed ‘arteries blockage’ in chronic heart patients with pranayama without any medicine. So many heart patients come to his ashram in Haridwar, India and get cured their heart problems with pranayam practice only. It is like a miracle and proves “Indian yoga & pranayama” credibility even in the age of advanced medical science.
Negative thinking is turns to positive approach to life. It increases enthusiasm and spirit, the Sadhaka becomes fearless and feels blissful.
It purifies all the nadies in the body, therefore it is also known as ‘Nadi Shuddhi’ or ‘Nadi Shodhana’ Pranayama. Some yogies call it as ‘Yogic Breathing’.
That's just the tip of the iceberg ; )
All the best.
