To see if rear brakes are the problem pull your handbrake on press the brake pedal. If there is a lot less movement then you need to adjust the rear brakes. If no change, pump the pedal a couple of times and see if movement reduces. If it does then you need to bleed your brakes properly. if you bleed the brakes properly - rear passenger, rear driver, front passenger, front driver in that order - and it still has a lot of travel you probably need to change the master cylinder. Don't let the master culinder run dry when you are bleeding the brakes or you'll have to start all over again. FYI, I know brake mechanics who prefer rear drums because they can adjust the balance between front and rear braking tosuit the car/driver. If yours keep binding then they need to be checked over.
