    I would try going lighter with the weights and/or taking a warm sitz bath after working out. An anti inflammatory like Alleve might be helpful as well as long as you don't have significant BPH symptons (like retention) in addition to the prostatitis.

      That is not the answer to the question. If I would be looking for solutions I would ask for it.
