On virtually every type of BBK I've worked on, I've never had any difficulty changing pads, track or in the garage.
Just take off wheels, undo pad retaining pins, and push old pads as far back as they can go. Feel free to use a large flat screwdriver to help push if you need leverage. If you have excessive resistance pushing the pistons back in, you may have seized pistons on your calipers...
