When you brake there is weight transference onto the front end of the bike, the harder you brake the bigger the effect. This will naturally cause the front forks to compress, how much will depend on the stiffness of the forks. I don't really see how your riding posture has any effect on this physical phenomenon, unless you move to the pillion seat every time you break to negate the effect!
