Hot after moving around carefully (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

thoroughly

'carefully' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'hot after moving around' is the wordplay.
'after moving' indicates anagramming the letters.
'around' becomes 'roughly' (synonyms).
'hot' with letters rearranged gives 'tho'.
'tho'+'roughly'='THOROUGHLY'

(Other definitions for thoroughly that I've seen before include "Completely" , "More than a bit" , "Musical with Julie Andrews" , "Really" , "Quite" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
