would i push and turn ? or just try to turn... and does the caliper need to be off the car or hooked up to the brake line ?

Use a pair of channel locks....turn the piston then squeeze it in.

if you're having this much trouble with the fronts, maybe it's time for rebuilt calipers.... they're pretty cheap.

if you're looking at the rears, then you should have known to just turn them inwards.
