Ok, if you weight lift on mondays and thursdays, and swim monday-friday on endurance, would that mess up the recovery of the work out? Or would it be fine since swimming is not putting alot of stress on the muscles?

I responded in your other question as well. You willbe fine. Your muscles can recover since swimming is more like cardio than weight-resisance.

light cardio the day after a high intensity session of resistance training can acts as active recovery and actual speed recovery time. by increasing blood flow to the body parts that were exercised the day before more oxygen and nutrients are delivered enhancing recovery.
high intensity cardio performed for too long the day after resistance training may impeded full recovery
