What I do is pinch brake lines after protecting them with an old hose and vice grips- crack bleeder open and try caliper apart. This does 3 things- gets rid of old fluid in calipers and prevents same crap old gunk from finding its way back up the system and makes getting caliper retracted easier. suck out old brake reservoir fluid with a turkey baster and fill with fresh- continue to bleed as normal.
We checked my brake pads 6 months ago and they had some good life left to them.
