Crossword Genius

Conclusion from some friend in gym (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ending

'conclusion' is the definition.
(I know that conclusion can be written as ending)

'some friend in gym' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some parts of the word are used).
'ENDING' can be found hidden inside 'friend in gym'.

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for ending that I've seen before include "Finishing" , "Gin den (anag.)" , "Closing down" , "terminal" , "Final part" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
