Courtesy of Google.
What is -
The interchangeable terms muzzle rise, muzzle flip and muzzle climb refer to the tendency of firearms or airguns' front end (muzzle end of the barrel) to rise up after firing.
Remedy -
Use a Muzzle weight or a muzzle brake.
Not sure if hold/posture can help as well.

Hello ,

Adding a question here, does a 12 ft lb air rifle be affected by this muzzle flip/brake?

Regards
Ashwin.
