Schrader looked to be a strong home candidate for the decathlon at the 2009 World Championships in Athletics held in Berlin after beating Trey Hardee at the Hypo-Meeting with a much improved best of 8522 points, but a stress fracture injury ruled him out.

He won the German decathlon title in August 2010, scoring 8003 points to take a win over André Niklaus. However, injuries left him unable to compete in 2011 and unable to finish the event in his sole outing of 2012 at the Hypo Meeting.
