Creatine Advice

    i'm thinking of starting taking a creatine supplement but want to ask you guys a few questions first.

    I suppose a little info about me and my training would prob be helpful: I'm 6 foot, 14.5 stone and lift 3 days a week and do cardio (usually either H.I.T or uphill running) twice a week. I also play 7 a side soccer or kickbox as regularly as I can.

    My diet is:
    Breakfast: Oatmeal and a handful of almonds.
    Lunch: Brown bread with Tuna, various veg, cheese, maybe a wrap or 3 egg omlette.
    Dinner: Brown rice, veg, chicken/turkey breasts.
    Snacks: Almonds, fruit, dried fruit.


    Now the questions
    1) Does creatine just bulk you up in size or can it help with muscle definition? I don't want to transform my body into one of those guys that waddles around the gym with their chest and bellys sticking out and their arms kind of floating mid air. What I'm looking for is to build strength for rugby and increase muscle size and definition.

    2) How much weight can creatine add in a short space of time, e.g 5-7 weeks?

    3)Once I stop taking creatine, will all of my gains turn to flab?

    Thanks for any and all help!
