Retch (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

heave

'retch' is the definition.
(heaving is a kind of retching)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for heave that I've seen before include "Haul - retch" , "Lift or throw with great effort" , "Retch - lift using much effort" , "Pull hard; (sea) swell" , "Pull - retch" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Independent.
