    U.S. Army Sgt. Edmond Burkhalter, from New Orleans, La., completes 125 push ups within two minutes at Camp As Sayliyah, a U.S. military installation in Qatar, on Feb 13. He performed the most repetitions, out of the 48 competitors, but tied with one other Soldier. Burkhalter, a cargo specialist serving in Afghanistan, was participating in the U.S. Central Command rest and recuperation pass program, offering war fighters a brief respite from military operations in southwest Asia. The popularity of the day's push-up challenge was fueled by a donation of shirts, accessories and magazines from Muscular Development, a popular monthly newsstand publication.
