I put new pads and rotors on last week and broke them in. Now my pedal feels a bit soft and the car brakes really poorly. Any ideas of what is causing this?

I did not change the fluid and it is 2 years old. I also opened the cap on the master cylinder when pushing the piston back in. None leaked out or anything. It may have something to do with this.
